    I can't really walk well in them, but some of them are just so cute.

    Katie & I are flip flop fanatics...

    Betwixt the two of us, we have about 25 pairs in sundry colors...
    (yes, Old Navy puts out the welcome mat for us!!)

    ~ I really like the Liberty ones....can see those being the rage here on post!!

    ~ The flossed ones, I can so see Missy making & wearing!!

    ~ and yeah - those scrap ones...well...you could probably tidy them up a bit, but no - not my speed.....

    I might be willing to wear them around the apartment while I clean but that's about it (the scrap fabric ones).

    Actually I'm glad this was posted. Some of them are really cute and I could make a couple pairs for my nieces gracie and jordan! They would look so cute!!!

    I love "flip-flops" but my RA doesn't. I've seen quite a few things made from them. A friend of mine that gave her little girl a birthday party gave each one of the guests a pair to decorate. They turned out really cute! One little girl used lace on her's with red beads.
